Earth is no longer sustainable.
Lead humanity’s final journey beyond the Solar System. Launch ships from fragile worlds, use gravity to bend your path, discover new star systems, and search for planets that could carry civilization forward.
Plan each launch, manage fuel and cargo space, and decide when to scan, deploy, trade, or push deeper into the unknown. Every expedition costs time and resources, and every discovery may open a new route for humanity.
Will you guide humanity to become a multi-planet species?
